Re: Ultimate Quik Wax: MUST READ - WARNING

I tried some on my black mustang on Saturday and actually had a tougher time with it. I found it to streak quite a bit. I basically sprayed it on after a wash (most of the water was blown off with an electric leaf blower) with what little water was left on the paint and then came around and buffed it off. It reminded me of the first NXT 1.0 wax in the way it streaked. I will try it one more time before making my final judgment though.

Just to be clear, when you sprayed it on the vehicle, did you spray and leave it to dry without touching it on the whole vehicle? Or did you spread the product around a little bit, then allow it to dry?

Did you do the whole vehicle in a single application, or in sections?

What did you use to apply and remove the product?

Re: Ultimate Quik Wax: MUST READ - WARNING

I've now had a single layer of UQW on my truck for almost 5 weeks and has endured 3 washings. Still beads like the day I put it on.......and it's the only protection on the paint. Glass is still beading as well.
A winner here.
Just can't wait for the gallon sized "PRO" version to hit.
145? LOL!

Re: Ultimate Quik Wax: MUST READ - WARNING

UQD and UQW are a deadly combo, especially for the mainting step in the 5 step paint care cycle

Re: Ultimate Quik Wax: MUST READ - WARNING

That is a very good point Michael.
I'm sure that is going to help people a lot.
I am going to quote you and put it in another post.

Re: Ultimate Quik Wax: MUST READ - WARNING

How and when you use UQD and UQW are quite different, and rather important.

UQD is a quick detailer mist and wipe product designed to add lubricity to the surface allowing you safely remove light dust and finger print smudges. It has the added bonus of leaving some hydrophobic polymer protection behind.

UQD is a spray wax that is exceptionally easy to use and won't stain trim, and it can even be applied in direct sunlight on a warm surface. But you do NOT want to apply it to a dusty surface, or use it to remove dust and fingerprints.

Very true, and very good points.

Re: Ultimate Quik Wax: MUST READ - WARNING

I don't see it as an either/or, but as a "in conjunction with" type product. Although it applies virtually the same as UQD (in terms of how easy it is to use), it will add more durable protection.

I think having 1 bottle and using that immediately after washing for a booster, and then using the UQD as more of a daily/routine maintenance would be a great plan. That's what I intend to do from now on (I have a gallon of M135 and a bottle of UQD, as well as my UQW).

Another warning - bees love buzzing around when you're using UQW!

Re: Ultimate Quik Wax: MUST READ - WARNING

I am kind of in the same boat as CarFire. I am low on cash, and I have about 5 bottles of UQD. Is it worth getting over using UQD first.

Re: Ultimate Quik Wax: MUST READ - WARNING

Hey - It also works great as a wax and shines up trim as well.

Re: Ultimate Quik Wax: MUST READ - WARNING

Can't wait to try it out ... thanks for sharing

Re: Ultimate Quik Wax: MUST READ - WARNING

I would like to try it but right now I just do not have the money.
Mike P should do a picture review and process.
Thanks for the review and information.

Re: Ultimate Quik Wax: MUST READ - WARNING

I did my car a 2006 Ford Escape twice and my wifes 2004 Kia Sedona once. UQW is great stuff. High gloss , easy to use, and beads so good that if it rains you just drive around the block and your cars almost dry. I tried both ways spray ,spread, let dry , wipe off , and spray and wipe. I like the spray and wipe better. After I spray and wipe the whole car , I go over it with a clean mf towel anyhow.

Re: Ultimate Quik Wax: MUST READ - WARNING

Interesting indeed. Keep us posted Mark.
Licking and smelling? Sick man indeed.

I'm going to order some UQW plus other non Meguiars stuff (ie: OCW,OOS, Blackfire stuff, etc) just for the sake of satisfying my need to test stuff
